Chapter 990 – 990. Witch’s Han (5)
“… “It’s heavy.”
That was Illyana’s impression when she first held her spear.
There was no way that she, a wizard who had never lifted anything other than a staff in the first place, would be able to lift a spear of such enormous weight with her weak strength.
[Well, this may be presumptuous, but…]
Brunak carefully watched Illyana’s thoughts and encouraged her luck.
Even though he had never done anything special, he was forcibly taught manners and felt like his life as a weapon was constantly being threatened.
“Why.”
[Have you ever held a spear?]
“Of course not.”
[Yes? But how on earth…]
“Just because you’ve never held one before, you should give up the idea that you can’t attack at all.”
[No. What on earth is that… No. I don’t know what you’re talking about…]
As soon as he felt another stinging gaze, Brunak corrected his words, trembling with his spear.
She was a woman who had never even held a spear, much less learned how to use a spear, so she couldn’t understand how she was going to use it.
“It’s just something like that. “If you don’t understand, don’t try to understand.”
[… Yes.]
For some reason, I felt like it was a bother to even explain it.
It was as if she was being treated poorly, but she couldn’t even complain, let alone express her dissatisfaction.
If she had offended this woman, she could have broken her very own spear in half.
“I don’t know how to throw a spear or anything. But that doesn’t mean there are no ways to use you.”
Brunak’s spear rose from Illyana’s hand and floated.
[Uh, huh?]
Soon she was spinning in the air, moving forward and backward, turning and moving as she pleased.
A very different method from the movements typically performed by spear magicians.
“Huh. “It moves well.”
Brunak was perplexed as she noticed that every time Illyana moved her fingers, her own spear began to move with her remote in the direction she indicated.
[Hey, wait a minute! This… !]
The role of the spear is to prove the ineffectiveness of the spearman holding it in his hand by demonstrating amazing skills.
But something was different about this.
Because she had no understanding, skill or talent for her spear.
This treatment was enough to embarrass Brunac, when she was really just treating herself as a tool.
A spear is a weapon, and a weapon is a tool that leads its owner to victory.
It cannot be denied, but it was an extremely humiliating moment for Brunac, who took great pride in bringing victory while perfectly bringing out his master’s talent and technique.
The name Shinchang (神槍) made me cry, it was my first time being treated like this.
“Goes.”
With a short declaration of attack, Brunak flew into the sky.
A simple magic that does not contain any of the skills of a spearman, let alone the strength and finesse.
It is a physical force exerted by magic that simply flies in the specified direction and coordinates as set.
Brunac flew in a straight line towards the black witch.
As if to make her pay the price for making fun of her words, the tip of the spear, aimed precisely at the black witch’s forehead, tore through the air and flew away.
“Tsk… !”
The Black Witch gritted her teeth when she saw the Brunak created by Illyana.
Simultaneously with the unbearable humiliation she felt from Illyana, who had completely blocked her spleen move, she activated the magic of Transcendence once again to shake it off.
[Ten-digit transcendent magic]
[Gungnir]
[Huh… !?]
While flying to penetrate the target, the witch.
In a split second of less than a second, Brunak held her breath as she saw the dark red magic spear that appeared in her hand.
I could clearly feel the density of power, pressure, and heavy karma it contained.
The Black Witch pointed at the flying Brunak, aiming for her own head.
Quaaaaa!
The two spears created by the witches collided with each other.
The tip of the spear blade, which collided head-on, trembled as it could not overcome the repulsive force created by the enormous force of the collision.
[Ouch… !?]
Is this crazy? Did it turn? Really?
It was Brunac’s muttering that he swallowed inside.
The shock felt from the tip of a spear colliding head-on is no joke.
A pressure of tremendous force, as if trying to crush part of the spear blade and completely destroy one’s soul.
Dangerous.
I thought that I would be swept away by the shock and explosion and disappear at any moment, but
“Hold on.”
She could not refuse her orders.
Illyana’s magic and magic assisted Brunak as she was pushed away by the density and pressure of her power and was almost swallowed up by Gungnir’s attack power.
He restored the spear blade and pole that were about to be crushed and destroyed, and rearranged the composition of magical energy that had evaporated and was empty, to fight back.
[What is this…]
Brunac was shocked by something different from before.
Unlike himself, who had sensed his defeat, it restored his crumbling spear in an instant and gave him the possibility to counter the overwhelming difference in power.
She confirmed that her power and magic that made up Gungnir gradually weakened over time.
In terms of instantaneous attack power itself, Gungnir, a ten-digit transcendental magic, boasted an overwhelming superiority to a level of difference, but perhaps due to its imperfection, the duration of its power was too short.
In contrast, Illyana perfectly composed her nine-digit transcendental magic and increased her sustaining power.
If it comes to a battle of time and maintenance, Illyana and Brunak have the upper hand.
As it is a transcendental magic that is manifested at the expense of enormous consumption of magical power and mental power, there is a restriction that it cannot be used repeatedly.
If you can withstand the crushing attack with that unreasonable level of attack power, you can turn the situation around.
It was a world completely different from what Brunak knew.
A fierce battle in which weapons are pointed, inaction is carried out, and each other’s life or death is at stake.
The battle between wizards that overturned common sense was full of things Brunak could not understand.
[Ugh!]
Brunakn desperately held on to his spirit and soul, which were about to disappear, and withstood Gungnir’s attack.
And finally, at the same time as Gungnir disappeared, Brunak’s spear, which had withstood the explosion of tremendous power, moved.
“This… !”
The Black Witch opened her eyes and bit her lip.
Her own ten-digit magic was said to be the same transcendental magic, but she felt numerous emotions about being destroyed by the nine-digit magic.
Shock and denial that I just don’t want to admit.
And the unbearable humiliation and anger.
But she couldn’t flinch from that.
There was no way Illyana could have missed her own embarrassment and her stiffness.
Sure enough, Illyana’s fingers moved again.
Brunak’s attack trajectory, which had flown straight toward the front, was twisted.
Turn left and run quickly, drawing a line in the sky.
[Ugh!?]
Brunac had to feel the sensation of running through the sky without his own control.
It was like a shark swimming at breakneck speed in the vast deep sea, but at the same time running at even faster speeds than the speed of light, it dazzled the black witch’s eyes.
[Six-digit high level magic]
[Prominence]
Kwaaaaang!
Dozens of magic circles began to spin violently around the black witch, filling the sky with dozens of red flames.
Explosions that explode every moment fill the sky.
The Black Witch was well aware that transcendental magic could not be offset by six-digit higher level magic, but her aim was different.
A means of temporarily obscuring vision as explosions fill the sky.
For that purpose, six-digit high-level magic was used dozens of times in multiple chants.
It was a short period of time, which only lasted a few seconds to block the view with the dark red smoke, but it was enough time for the black witch.
‘It’s impossible to do anything with that window.’
It was so humiliating, but I accepted the reality.
Even at the cost of that humiliation, the Black Witch had to prioritize finding a way to achieve her victory.
‘Then what you should aim for is… !’
Targeting the wizard who manifested that magic.
Pajik! Puzzle!
The Black Witch squeezed out all the magic she had and activated her last transcendental magic.
[Ten-digit transcendent magic]
[Gungnir]
A final blow made by pouring out all possible magical and mental power.
While activating her transcendental magic, there was no way Illyana would be able to block her own magic.
Although the situation was filled with dark red smoke and visibility was limited, recognizing and identifying the enemy through sight had no meaning to the Black Witch.
Illyana’s location and coordinates have already been identified.
“Die!”
The witch threw the divine spear, with causality omitted, at those coordinates.
She was certain that the magic of transcendence, which was beyond providence, was a perfect hit, as it skipped the flying process itself and only brought about the result of ‘hit.’
However, contrary to her assurance of victory, the blade of Brunac’s spear, which appeared through the red smoke of her sword, pierced the black witch’s left chest.
“Wow, wow… !”
With her limited field of vision, it was only after realizing that her heart had been pierced that she became aware of the presence of her spear, perfectly aimed at her own chest.
The black witch, who was contorted in intense pain and vomited red blood, was belatedly shocked.
“How… !?”
It was becoming increasingly difficult for her to breathe, but the question that filled the mind of the witch, who had not yet lost her breath even as her heart was pierced through her chest, was that she could not understand her own defeat.
The bloody magic that was scattered all around her gradually faded and lost its power.
As she fell to the ground, a series of explosions of prominence cleared the smoke that filled her, revealing the woman who had cornered her and defeated her.
“I told you so.”
“Ah…”
The black witch sighed softly.
“All your moves were read.”
The veil of absolute defense surrounding Illyana and protecting her came into view.
She realized why her own Gungnir had been blocked by Illyana.
“Transcendence, magic… Two at the same time… ?”
Realizing that she had been maintaining Gungnir and Aegis by casting them at the same time, the Black Witch was astonished.
The prerequisite of not being able to double cast more than two transcendental magic was not established.
“Cool, lucky… !”
The black witch fell to the floor and looked up at her Illyana, coughing up blood.
Unbearable helplessness and humiliation.
Resentment towards those who disrupted the plans and aspirations that had been prepared for a long time.
She said, glaring at her hated opponent.
“Why should I stand… !”
The black witch vomited out her blood and at the same time poured out powerful resentment.
“Why?… !”
“…”
“Why not me… ! You are there… !”
She couldn’t understand.
Even though she was close to the threshold of death, even at the moment when defeat was confirmed, she could not accept anything.
“What makes me different from you… !”
Why is it that in this dimension, in the world where Eunhyeon lives, the person next to him is not himself?
I couldn’t stand it.
If I could, I wanted to question and argue with the being who gave me this fate.
“Well, how much I have done to have this position… !”
Massacred many people.
And among them were former colleagues who had shared life and death with her in the past.
We have come this far by accumulating countless karma while destroying dimensions.
In order to have just one person, he gave up everything he could and came this far.
The thing that stands in the way of one’s goal is none other than another self.
I felt so resentful.
“You said it.”
Illyana calmly accepted all of the complaints and spoke.
“I was just a lucky bitch who happened to be in this dimension.”
“Cool, lucky… !”
“That’s right. “That was the only difference between you and me.”
She admitted it obediently.
If Eunhyeon wasn’t by his side, if Eunhyeon was in another dimension, he would have done anything to meet her.
He may have done anything to meet Eun-hyeon, even sacrificing many people like her, killing his former colleagues, and accumulating countless acts of terrible injustice.
“But there’s one more thing.”
“What… ?”
“The reason you have no choice but to lose.”
“Well, what on earth, hey…” ?”
He said the reason he lost,
I could understand it with my head.
In the fight against her, she faced defeat as a result of clashing with her abilities as a magician.
But even though she could understand with logic and reason, she could never accept this feeling.
She really didn’t understand, so the Black Witch asked as her breath caught.
“Can you share Hyeon with someone?”
“What… ?”
“Can you bear to see Hyeon end up with someone other than me and become a couple?”
The Black Witch couldn’t answer.
That question was a natural one with an already established answer.
The reason she couldn’t answer was because she couldn’t understand the intent of the question.
The black witch spoke belatedly.
“It’s impossible.”
Impossible.
Is Eun-hyeon having sex with someone other than herself and overlapping their bodies?
The moment I imagined it in my head.
I felt unbearable feelings of anger and jealousy.
Eunhyun had to be only with him.
Just with yourself, forever, for the rest of your life.
He absolutely could not allow someone else to come between him and Eunhyeon.
Just imagining it filled my mind with intense anger, even as I slowly got closer to death, vomiting blood.
“Hehe.”
Illyana laughed after seeing the witch’s reaction.
It was as if she had expected that answer and expression.
“Okay. I knew it.”
“You… You mean you can share, you can give in? Hyun, cough… ! Hyeon… ?”
“That’s right. “I can give in.”
“Nonsense…”
She couldn’t understand.
Illyana is another version of herself.
Even though she thinks the same way as him and has her own thoughts, she can make different choices than he does.
How can she understand?
“I realized the reality. “I can’t keep Hyun happy with my own strength.”
Illyana smiled bitterly.
When she first saw Eunhyun back to life, Illyana knew that this was her last chance.
Her beloved Eunhyun was essential for her own happiness.
So she wanted to keep Eunhyeon by her side for the rest of her life.
“Is it my own happiness or Hyeon’s happiness? “That’s the only difference.”
But it’s such a big difference.
“So you can’t beat me.”
“… “Sounds like an asshole.”
The Black Witch couldn’t understand her words, let alone sympathize with them until the end.
Eventually, she made a proposal to Illyana.
“Take my power.”
“What?”
Illyana tilted her head, not understanding for a moment what she was saying.
“Absorb my magic power. Then you can become stronger. “It would be a better choice, both for me as a wizard and for Hyun.”
“I refuse.”
Illyana flatly rejected her witch’s offer.
“Do you think I don’t know what you think?”
“…”
“I’m going to take advantage of the opportunity by inserting thoughts into your magic and absorbing them into me.”
It was the perfect answer.
The Black Witch admitted her defeat, but did not give up on fighting to the end to win her silver.
There was no way Illyana didn’t know that.
Because she was another version of herself.
The black witch, who sensed her perfect appearance, muttered her resentment to the end in her fading consciousness.
“Damn you, bitch…”
“It’s your loss. “Just disappear now.”
Illyana killed her black witch.
